Assembly
1. Follow the steps for your type of pump to assemble
the diaphragms and attach one of the fluid covers.
Metal Pumps (1050A, 1050H, 1050S)
a. Install the o-ring (102) on the shaft bolt.
b. Assemble the fluid side plate, the diaphragm
(101), and the air side diaphragm plate on the
bolt exactly as shown on page 1.
c. Apply medium-strength (blue) Loctite or equiva-
lent to the bolt threads. Screw the bolt into the
shaft hand tight.
d. Grease the shaft u-cups (in center housing) and
the length and ends of the diaphragm shaft.
Slide the shaft into the housing.
e. Repeat Steps a-c for the other diaphragm
assembly.
f. Hold one shaft bolt with a wrench and torque
the other bolt to 20-25 ft-lb (27-34 N•m) at 100
rpm maximum. Do not over-torque.
g. Reattach the first fluid cover (3). See Torque
Instructions in the manual. Go to Step 2.
Plastic Pumps (1050C, 1050F, 1050P)
a. Assemble the diaphragm (101) and the air side
diaphragm plate onto the fluid side plate.
b. Apply medium-strength (blue) Loctite or equiva-
lent to the threads of the screw on the fluid side
plate. Screw the assembly into the shaft
hand-tight.
c. Grease the shaft u-cups (in center housing) and
the length and ends of the diaphragm shaft.
Slide the shaft into the housing.
d. Repeat Steps a and b for the other diaphragm
assembly.
e. Hold one of the plates with a wrench, and
torque the other plate to 20-25 ft-lb (27-34 N•m)
at 100 rpm maximum. Do not over-torque.
f. Reattach the first fluid cover. See Torque
Instructions in the manual.
2. To ensure proper seating and extend diaphragm life,
attach the second fluid cover with air pressure on
the pump.
a. Place the supplied tool (104) where the air valve
gasket normally goes. Arrows (A) must face
toward the fluid cover that is already attached.
b. Reattach the air valve.
c. Supply a minimum of 20 psi (0.14 MPa, 1.4 bar)
air pressure to the air valve. Shop air may be
used. The diaphragm will shift so the second
fluid cover will seat properly. Keep air pressure
on until the second fluid cover is attached.
d. Attach the second fluid cover. Follow Torque
Instructions in the manual.
e. Remove the air valve and the tool (104).
NOTE: If you are replacing the diaphragms but not the
air valve, you must remove the air valve and gasket, put
the tool in place of the gasket, and put the air valve back
on to get the air pressure needed for proper installation
of the second fluid cover. Remember to remove the tool
and replace the gasket when finished.
3. Reassemble the ball check valves and manifolds as
explained in the manual.
